However, there is an earlier flight on the same day that WILL be the new A380 config. Can I show up and get on the earlier flight? I suspect it is unlikely that the Suites cabin will be sold out so I have to think that there will be a spare seat (only 1 pax).

Anyone with experience with this type of change?
usually SQ is quite strict for awards ticket.
Further for SQ317 (the one with new suites), many days are sold out for suites within the next 2 weeks. This does show the demand for the new suites. So chances are low. Further there are also people on waitlist which SQ might release the seats as well.
